Tracking and Data Association

Abstract

Part of the objective of work package two in the RoboEarth project is to develop a fast, real-time capable multi-sensor multi-target data association and objects tracking approach that works in unstructured and dynamically changing environments with typically a large number of objects. Such an algorithm allows the robot to safely navigate through the hospital room and to react on moving object. This literature survey gives an extensive overview of the recent advances in data association and tracking approaches.
